The fact that you fired your CEO for exercising his 1st Amendment rights cause me to fire you! I have removed firefox from all 7 of my family's computers!
I am not against gay marriage any more than I am against Unicorns! Neither ONE EXISTS! Marriage is between one man and one woman. There may be gay unions, or gay couples, but there is NO such thing as gay marriage. That said, you chose to discriminate against a man who simply exercised his Constitutional 1st Amendment right. I am exercising my right to boycott Mozilla and firefox.

Hi Everyone:
My name is Mark. I'm new to the Mac World. I purchased a MacBook Pro with Retina Scan, as I'm going to make multi media self help books (I'm an author and psychotherapist). I have been getting a number of inconsistencies in answers to the same questions.
1 - Can I do a 1:1 by phone? When I bought my 1:1 the salesperson told me yes.
Now I find out the answer is no.
2 - I've started signing up for group, individual, and open training.
It seems that I cannot sign up for a second one until I have taken the first of any of these trainings.
So if I want to sign up for 3, 1:1's in 3 different stores, on 3 different days I can't (if I read the terms and conditions properly.) until I have my first 1:1, open, or group training.
I was told when I purchased my 1:1 that I could have as many trainings as I wanted to, and as much as I wanted. I could even spend a whole day going to different training at the same store on thew same day.
Have others found inconsistencies in what you are told by sales people and what the rules are?
Thank you for any help you can give me.
Mark Dworkin LCSW P.C.1) The One-to-One program is in person in an Apple Store. I've never heard of any phone-based training. Perhaps the salesperson was confusing that with AppleCare which extends the phone support on your product.
2) Here is the relevant part from the official terms:
Members may have no more than one (1) Personal Training, one (1) Group Training and one (1) Open Training session reserved at any given time. After the completion of your session, you may schedule your next.
http://www.apple.com/retail/learn/one-to-one/terms.html
If the saleperson gave you incorrect information that makes the One-to-One service unusable, talk to the store manager and tell him or her what information you were given incorrectly, and ask about a refund of the cost of the program.

Brendan Eich was pushed to resign as CEO because he contributed $1000 in support of Prop 8 in California in 2008. He was supporting what a majority of Californians voted for and was entitled to donate to this cause. Since when is freedom of speech no longer a right? Since when do the gays call the shots of who can do what and when?
I have used Firefox for many years, but uninstalled it and will never again use it as long as you continue to punish your employees for supporting something they believe in. Are you going to start dictating the people your employees can vote for next? I sincerely hope Mr Eich found a better job somewhere else where he doesn't have to apologize for his beliefs.Would it really hurt you to ask for facts on what happened with Brendan Eich before assuming the worst happened instead?
They knew about his 2008 donation as it was public record (due to California law on donations with name and employer being listed) for a couple years at least and the board and employees (apart from a small number) supported him for who he is to promote him from CTO to CEO. This was not found out after he became CEO as some mistakenly believed.
Unfortunately some media outlets will rather publish sensationalized stories generating many clicks and increased revenue by ads than perform the most basic fact-checking or even posting the truth.
In fact Brendan refused to step down (as first link from day before shows) due to the pressure from outside campaigning to get him to resign as CEO. However it just got so bad in increasing attacks that he felt he could no longer be an effective leader with people constantly attacking him. He decided to leave as his way of helping Mozilla however this then triggered attacks more towards Mozilla due to the misconceptions made by individuals and article writers thinking was fired or forced out.

I would like to think since he was not fired or forced out he could go back to Mozilla if he wanted to when things dies down.

latest version has been added ... does not fire up...
using windows 7 service pack 1Hello,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
Thank you. -

this is just awful, apple, what the heck? -
The system doesn’t recognize or capitalize the word (I) or the first word of every sentence. Another really annoying thing about the integrated mail on your Mac computers is the fact that the system learns the word as you type it more and more instead of highlighting it as incorrectly is this is a word that’s being misspelled. Can Apple fix this bug to make it user friendly as if you were using Office or a Word Document?
You hit the target CT.
It’s only fair that if Apple is going to integrate Mail into Mac PCs, it would be nice if the system does it for you like Office or perhaps Outlook. I just don’t to use Outlook although I have it installed and ready to use, but instead use Mail which comes with Mac OS already.
I hope to make some sense here. -
I WANT TO BUY A MAC BOOK PRO. MUST I WAIT FOR THE ONE WITH RETINA DISPLAY. WILL THE FACT THAT THERE IS NO CD ROAM BE A PROBLEM? CAN YOU USE AN EXSTERNAL CD ROAM WITH A MAC?
Apple will gladly sell you a color coordinated and texture matching external SuperDrive to go with your Retina'ized MBP for about $80 bucks.
Note that those models are completely sealed with no serviceable or upgradeable parts inside. So if you decide to bite the bullet, be sure to customize its guts to your heart's content from the get-go as no further change will be possible. This means CPU speed, amount of RAM and size of the solid state drive. Other external options, like the Superdrive, can be added later. -
How do you determine the picture that is shown on iTunes for your podcast?
How do you determine the picture that is shown on iTunes for your podcast? Is that done in iWeb or Garagetunes?
That is a supported format,
Pull the battery while the device is ON, replace after a minute, Let the device reboot 1-3 min,
see if the problem is fixed,
If not we may have to reload the device OS to get back the missing option.
Thanks,

Can you fix , the fact that If you leave the firefox UPDATE window open for a long period (say 20 minutes in the background), then close all other windows, then choose to download update, it uses this extra time to estimate the download? (Mine said, 12 Hours to start with, but took under 2 minutes!)
== This happened ==
Not sure how often
== When you install update to 3.6.4 (Possibly for every update?)The download should happen in the background (before you get an update window). I wonder why that didn't happen for you...\
Did you manually check for updates? -
I am totally frustrated by the fact that now i have gone to iCloud and after a few synchs, my contacts are all mixed up with the wrong information. For instance, my email and phone number comes up under someone else's name (a thousand contacts). I dont know how to repair this. what a nightmare
An icloud account is designed to be used by just one user. If you have given your ID or set up your account on someone else's device, then their data will be mingled with your or worse.

Im having trouble with error 13019 I have read the previous discussions about this matter and have tried to do them except for the fact that under the music tab when clicking on my ipod every thing is frozen. It s not my comp. and i dont wish to restore. Please help!
If you are wondering why you are not getting any responses, it is because you have vented a complaint without any details that make any sense or give anyone something to work on.
If you want help, I suggest actually detailing what has happened, with versions of software etc. Anything that would let us assist.
As a start I am guessing that you have not really got the hang of "How it all works". Firstly download the Pages09_UserGuide.pdf from under the Help menu. Read that and view the Video Tutorials in the same place. A good addition would be the iWork 09 Missing manual book and something to help you learn how to use your Mac.
If there are specific tasks you need help with:

Why wont apple accept the fact that 4.0 is for iphone 4 and not for 3gs?
Having all those problems said with 3g/s running on iOS 4.X why wont they let us just downgrade back to 3.1.3 officially until they find a way on how to solve issues with 3g/s?
About the downgrade method of life hacker, if you're really not good in those things you might actually ruin your pc like my friend who tried it, she lost her wifi on her notebook, i had to help her find the installer of the driver again. this happened after she tried to install that libusb that is needed to run the application for exit recovery mode and other stuff.
Yes iOS 4.1 is out but contacts disappearing? And who knows what more problems it brings. I was even peeking around the iphone 4 forums it seems that they are not doing well either.
Anyway mine is all fine except that im afraid to use wifi or any apps that needs internet connection because everytime i do, my 3gs gets very very hot. I have already done the basic solution suggested by apple (factory reset, start from new iphone) but its still the same.
And another thing, the multitasking is getting annoying, you have to manually close all apps in the 'multitasking background' everytime you decide to quit an app. I guess they should put a 'Disable multitasking' or something like that.Firenzo wrote:

Because it works beautifully in the 3GS, with better battery life, faster operation and some great new features.

If you are having problems it is NOT from 4.0; there is something else wrong with your phone. There are plenty of troubleshooting tips in the forum if you look.

NO YOU DO NOT. Those apps in the ribbon are not multitasking, they are suspended. You can ignore them and they won't hurt battery life or memory, unless they are streaming apps like Pandora.
It's amazing. For 3 years people screamed about the fact that the iPhone didn't support multitasking. Now they scream because the phone DOES multitasking. You can't win. -
I did not keep the email with my registration for the free trial so I do not have a serial number as I have no products due to the fact that my trial has expired but I would now like to purchase a product and I cannot skip the serial number request in order to buy the product it's so irritating I'm about to just do a different product altogether... anyone know how to get or bypass the serial number request?
You must first make the purchase, then you will receive the serial number you are asking about. YOu do not acquire the serial number thru the software. You acquire it thru the purchase, possibly via a follow-up confirmation email.
